Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Kaimes Hill, City of Edinburgh, has been the focus for both antiquarian and modern archaeological research since at least the mid-nineteenth century and has produced evidence for activity dating from the Mesolithic through to the medieval period. The paper assimilates this evidence, provides a complete account of the excavations undertaken over the ramparts, `hut circles', prehistoric ritual and funerary monuments by D D A Simpson between 1964--72, and presents the results obtained from recent artefactual analysis and radiocarbon dating. Specialist reports include: History of investigation; The results of the 1964--72 excavations; Cup-and-ring marked stones; Radiocarbon dates; Prehistoric pottery; Lithics; Coarse stone artefacts; Worked bone; Roman coin; Miscellaneous small finds; Animal bone; Cremated human bone; Site discussion. | ||||||||||
